Maria felt heartbroken and stifled. In the past, the dresses she wore to banquets were all high-end, custom-made, limited editions.Now, Adriana needed two dresses—together costing nearly $300,000. Where on earth could she get them?After thinking for a moment, she decided to call her former designer, Kristen.Kristen answered brightly. “My lucky queen! It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but it’s really bad timing. All the dresses in your size are out of the store. There’s a business event tomorrow and a film festival the day after—everything’s been booked in advance.”“Not even a single one?” Adriana asked.There was a pause, and some background conversation on Kristen’s end. Then he came back with a grin in his voice. “Actually, there’s one, but the waist was too skinny for your size.”Even borrowing one was already a big favor. Adriana didn’t want to push her luck. “Okay, thank you. I’ll definitely repay you later!”Debts of gratitude are never easy—but when you owe, you pay.

Adriana was lost in thought when she ran headlong into someone’s chest.Looking up, she saw Aidan’s crooked expression.“Director Aidan, pouring coffee yourself, huh?”Aidan’s tone was ironic. “No! Just standing here like a pole in your way.”Adriana smiled politely and took his cup. “I’ll make it for you. Director Aidan, just wait a moment.”Aidan had a storm brewing in his chest that he couldn’t quite shake. He followed her, glanced around to make sure no one was nearby, and whispered,“So… did that guy with the surname Walker contact you?”Adriana began preparing the coffee—measuring the beans, adding water, and starting the machine.“Why?”“Just asking!”Adriana chuckled. “Feeling guilty?”Aidan thought back to the other night. After cooling off, he realized his impulsive behavior might have caused trouble for Adriana. He didn’t want to admit it, but he felt uneasy.“Guilty? About what? For a friend like you, I’d take a knife to the ribs!”“Yes, yes. Director Aidan, you’re my swor

Adriana knew she couldn’t hide this matter from her uncle and didn’t intend to lie to get around it. “To be exact, he was the one who sought me out,” she said.Bruce’s tone turned serious. “He threatened you? Is he using this as blackmail to force you into something?”Adriana thought to herself, Everyone thinks Calvin is some kind of absolute jerk who forces people to do what he wants. Is his public image really that bad?“We’re helping each other. We both get what we need. This doesn’t hurt me in any way.”Bruce still seemed like he wanted to ask more, but Adriana took the initiative to change the subject. “By the way, Uncle, Maria is in New York. I have a few things I need her help with, so she won’t be able to come to England to see you for a while.”Bruce sounded wary. “Maria didn’t cause any trouble, did she? She’s capricious and reckless—and she never speaks with a light heart!”Her uncle’s assessment of his own daughter was accurate, Adriana thought.“No, she’s doing well. Afte
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 320 Adriana… is your heart made of iron?
Adriana pursed her lips. Of course, she didn’t dare to think Calvin would let it go so easily. He was like a drawn knife—once out, it wouldn't return to its sheath without drawing blood.“To put it bluntly,” she said, “this all started with your engagement to Anna. I helped you expose her, and now she’s teaming up with Ray to retaliate against me, eventually provoking Aidan into fighting. It wasn’t right for him to throw a punch—but don’t you bear some responsibility for what happened?”Calvin slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a long finger. The vivid red on his skin was glaring.“This is your idea of pleading for mercy and admitting fault, Miss Clarke?” he asked coldly.His biting tone made Adriana falter. She instinctively stepped back half a pace to steady herself.“Well… at least I helped you cancel the engagement,” she offered quietly.Calvin gave a low, derisive laugh. “Bruce is still in prison. Do you really think you’re in a position to negotiate with me
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 319 Was there really no place for him in her heart?
Aidan’s punch stunned everyone present.Anna covered her mouth tightly, or she would have screamed.Snow’s heart, pulled taut like a string, suddenly snapped, leaving only instinctive fear racing through her mind. It’s over, she thought. She was afraid Aidan’s life would end today because of this.Aidan himself, however, felt no fear at all—not for his life or for what might happen next. Instead, he stared at Calvin with wide, furious eyes. Every word he spoke burned with rage from the depths of his soul.“This punch is for Adriana. I know you have power and status. If you want me dead, I probably won’t live to see the sunrise tomorrow. But remember this—even if you kill me, I’ll still make you pay for what you did to Adriana!”Adriana’s eyes welled with warmth. The uneasiness that had been lingering in her heart began to melt.Aidan knew Calvin’s identity and understood his influence. Yet he still fought for her. His defiance may have been reckless—some might even call it foolish bra

“Risk your reputation?” Adriana’s voice was calm. “Indeed, once Miss Blake’s secrets hidden in the dark come to light, it won’t just be you—Phantom Group will be implicated as well.”“So what? At worst, we’ll both go down together! No matter the cost, I’ll take you with me!”Adriana gave a faint smile but said nothing.One thing had led to another, and Anna, thrown off balance by Adriana’s composure, unknowingly fell into her trap.Only after venting her anger did Anna realize her mistake. But there was no going back now.Adriana remained composed. She hadn’t expected Anna to unravel so easily. A pampered young lady who's never faced hardship really can’t handle being cornered. Adriana understood; she had once been the same. Back then, she couldn’t tolerate a single misstep and would rather die than yield. She had suffered deeply in the workplace to learn better.People’s hearts are built on resilience.“If Miss Blake really wants me dead, it’s not that hard,” Adriana said lightly. “T

Snow carefully tugged on Adriana’s sleeve, her voice low enough that only the two of them could hear. “Dear, what’s going on? Why are they all showing up together?”Adriana was worried about Snow getting into a big fight with Ray—especially with Calvin’s stern presence here. Provoking him now would only lead to more trouble later. She instructed calmly, “The situation is what you see—a coincidence. But you need to stay composed today. We still have plenty of ways to deal with Ray. Don’t forget the people I arranged for you. So don’t panic. Stay steady.”Snow nodded. She wasn’t afraid of Ray, but she was intimidated by Calvin’s cold, imposing presence in the corridor. “I know today is important. You’re the main focus. I’ll do as you say.”Adriana wordlessly pinched the back of her hand—a gesture of both support and seriousness.Ray’s faint, cli
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 316 This was going to be big
So this was the so-called "presentiment"—so soon?It had been a long time since she’d seen Ray, and only earlier today had she explained Maria’s outburst. It was almost fortunate, in a way, that she ran into him now.Adriana looked up. Her cool, indifferent gaze was neither friendly nor hostile.“Mr. Ray.”A cold greeting—devoid of warmth or politeness.They were never meant to be allies, and there was no need to keep up appearances. Even if she pretended to be cheerful, it wouldn’t change anything. Ray wouldn’t show her mercy.Ray curled one side of his mouth into a contemptuous smile—blatant enough that it didn’t need interpreting. With one hand in his pocket, he sneered, “Lawyer Clarke, something good happen? You look awfully cheerful.”Adriana replied flatly, “Whether I’m happy or not doesn’t seem to have anything to do with Mr. Ray William.&
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 315 It’s a fair trade. If she’s happy, I’m happy
Having lived among New York’s high society for a few years and come into contact with quite a few celebrities and aristocrats, Maria immediately asked, “Global Entertainment’s Ray William? Eastern William’s only son?”“That’s him.”Maria wasn’t sure what Adriana was up to this time, but her instincts told her it would be even more difficult than the last task. She couldn’t help but ask, “Do you have a personal grudge against him?”She remembered Ray was Calvin’s friend. Shouldn’t he be on good terms with Adriana? Then why did Adriana’s expression show such obvious dislike?Adriana never suspected others lightly, never used people carelessly, and never hid the truth from Maria. “He used despicable means to hurt my friend. But the real target… is me. It’s not that I hold a grudge—it’s that he’s prejudiced against me. And if I don’t strike first, he’s going to make his move soon.”Maria nodded instinctively as she listened. She was starting to believe Adriana’s words. Deep down, she felt
